To edit my request, I don't care if I have to buy individual for Thurs, Fri, Sat (I usually skip Sunday and go off to see friends in San Diego) I do care about getting in Wednesday. So if anyone has any contacts or can help with a four day or preview night let me know. I'll pay back the RFSO love on this however I can.

Forgive my ignorance but is there a way to know which days certain booths will have their exclusives out? There are a couple I would for sure not want to miss.

I was wondering how that worked I really don't want to miss the grass hut releases. I wasn't sure if they would be posting the days on their blogs or what. Thanks for the information.

Post Re: SDCC 2009
the whole process of SDCC will seriously drive you insane if you are trying to stay on a budget.

i spent hours on end looking for hotels back in january and didn't find anything. now everything is gone including the hotel i stayed at last year 5 miles away.

i was able to get a room downtown on wed. by paying cash upfront/ non refund. so at least i have 1 day for a respectable $239 a night + ridiculous tax / (cough)

the rest is going to be a mystery.

its amazing to look at the normal hotel rates of like 89$ a night / go to $360 for the con.
all that monies being made.

thursday is going to drive me over the edge for sure...

we are all certainly stimulating the economy.
